Motherhood can be magical one moment, mayhem the next - we've been there!
Nothing fully prepares you for this incredible adventure as you learn to balance your family's needs with your own and explore what it means to be a modern mum.
You crave a strong connection with your body, child & partner, without exhaustion, stress or overwhelm coming between you.
You know exercise is part of your healing & self-care, and would love a solution that fits in with your unpredictable routine, quick activities you can do in comfort without the pressure of leaving the house.
You're interested in ways to manage motherhood with mindfulness.
To have daily ease & peace, to feel present & positive, so you can make the most of this precious time in your life.
Sound familiar?
YOU'VE PUT YOURSELF ON HOLD
With so many demands on your time and energy, it's easy to forget that we need nurturing too. Your cup has been empty for far too long.
YOU'RE OVERWHELMED & DEPLETED
While collapsing on the couch for some Netflix sounds good, it's less fun when you realise you fell asleep 30 seconds into your favourite show!
YOU FEEL SO ALONE IN ALL OF THIS
Motherhood was supposed to unite a village around you, but you're feeling more isolated than ever. Maybe mum's group wasn't a good fit or you're held hostage by nap times. However it happened, the loneliness is deafening & something has to give.
YOU FEEL GUILTY DOING SOMETHING NURTURING FOR YOURSELF
Self-care seems indulgent when there's so much to do. Washing, cooking, parenting, relationships...even if nobody is saying anything, you feel so much guilt for wanting a time out.
Whatever your experience looks or feels like, we want you to know it’s okay.
It’s why we created The Sanctuary.
A place devoted to making self-care easy & accessible to mums - so they can enjoy the magic of motherhood.
(and not just tag their lives #blessed while struggling in secret!)
Wouldn’t it be amazing to know you could...
✓ Get back to feeling rested in your body?
✓ Find a place of calm when the day (or night!) is getting the better of you?
✓ Have a closer connection with your partner, your child and yourself?
✓ Be the woman and mum you want to be?
Being a mum is literally non-stop and the mental load so many of us feel is REAL and EXHAUSTING. It's so easy to get consumed in the day to day pressure of the many roles we have to play. From teacher to playmate, breadwinner to counsellor, manager to mind-reader, it's a physical and mental marathon!
Deep down you know you're burnt out and it's not sustainable.
It's time to make this all a little easier and a whole lot more fun.

"Even if you only have a few minutes a day, The Sanctuary makes it as easy as possible for you to take care of yourself - and be the woman & mum you've always wanted to be."
"I was so lost in the day-to-day, I'd forgotten how to stop and breathe. The Sanctuary has really helped me find ways to manage my worry and get some of myself back. Love it!"
Ruby Harris, Mum of Aliya, Jasper & baby Lola
It may be a guided meditation during nap time, a simple breathing exercise when the day (or night!) is getting the better of you, or a restorative yoga class to wind down after the kids are in bed – whatever you need, we have created practical solutions to suit you.
All our classes are designed with an easy search function and a customised program tailored to your unique health and wellbeing goals.

The Sanctuary is not about fitting into some perfect “Zen Mum” stereotype who always stays calm, eats organic, has the perfect work-life balance, remains present (even during shopping centre tantrums!) and looks like a hippie goddess in her active wear with her flower crown. No.
We simply want you to enjoy motherhood, unencumbered by fatigue, stress, and expectations of how everything “should” look. Being a mindful mum is not another ideal to live up to, nor is it another measure by which to focus on our imperfections.
Far from it. Mindful motherhood is not about becoming someone other than who you already are. By adopting self love and daily care, you'll develop an appreciation for the here and now and be more connected to yourself and your family.
We totally get it.
We've felt depressed, lost and anxious, leaping from overwhelming love for our little ones...to immense frustration and self-judgemental worry - all within a matter of moments.
We've felt like we had no choice but to devote every drop of ourselves to other people, while losing ourselves in the process.
Oh yes, we've been there! Until we realised something...
It doesn't have to be so hard!
Stop putting yourself on hold and start investing a little more love into the most important person in your child's life - YOU.
Discover the woman and mum you were meant to be as you learn to embrace each moment.

"I have 3 young boys and things get pretty hectic so wanted to find ways to do some things for myself with limited time. Also finding ways to reconnect with my husband.
I love that I can easily find a class by time I have available - I sometimes only have a few minutes a day for some quiet “me time” and I love that there are class topics to suit all needs"
- Carly Norquay, Member in The Sanctuary
"It's so comforting to know that The Sanctuary is always there. It's helped me get out of the new mum haze I was in and learn ways to cope with all the stresses that come up as a mum."

Still got questions?
What is The Sanctuary?
The Sanctuary is an online membership that makes it easy and fun for you to take care of yourself while you're busy caring for others. Every week you get a brand new class from one of our amazing teachers, plus encouragement and inspiration emails to keep you on track. You can also connect with a supportive community in our private Facebook group and join us for live online masterclasses.
How is The Sanctuary content delivered?
Everything is in the membership portal. You just log in and can access all the classes and additional resources — for the current month AND all previous months. There are over 200 online classes ready and waiting for you to enjoy! You can access The Sanctuary from your computer, tablet or smartphone.
You can also download the audio and save it on your devices. And to make it SUPER easy to stay consistent, we send an email at the start of each week to encourage and support you!
Will the classes suit me?
One of the best features of The Sanctuary is the wide variety of teachers. We’re always hearing from our members that they love this. There is something for everyone!
I don’t have a lot of free time, how can I take care of myself without it becoming another to-do I’ll feel bad about missing?
We designed The Sanctuary with this in mind, because most mums only have a few minutes a day to themselves. That’s why all the classes are short & to the point, you can search by problem or category, and get what you need in moments. Whether that’s to fit in a quick meditation to revive you after a long night, a yoga stretch to centre you, a pilates lesson to put that pelvic floor back where it belongs, or something else (there’s so much!), you’ll love checking it off your to-do list.
Will I be overwhelmed with a library of content and no clue where to start?
The Sanctuary starts you off with a recommended playlist for your unique situation. #TechMagic
You’ll be able to search and browse if you want, but we know not every single resource will fit. Like prenatal yoga if you’ve been there, done that! You’ll never be lost in The Sanctuary, we promise!
What if I want to cancel my membership?
You can cancel at anytime, there are no contracts or guilt trips!
Annual Subscription - If you select the annual subscription and then decide The Sanctuary isn’t for you, you can cancel anytime and you will not be charged when your annual subscription is due for renewal. You will still be able to access The Sanctuary within the 12 month period from the date you signed up.
Monthly Subscription - If you select the monthly subscription and decide The Sanctuary isn’t for you, you can cancel anytime by contacting us.

You’ll continue to be able to access and benefit from the membership through the last day of the month in which you cancel.
